Does anyone know if it's possible on a FB app to insert the comments via javascript so I can access the elements via jQuery instead of using the <fb:comments> which inserts an iFrame which means I can't touch any of the elements.
The pre-made Facebook plugin has some big limitations, and this is one of them. You can write your own comments tool (I have in the past for a file storage app I wrote many years ago allowing people to leave comments about files other people uploaded). See: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/api/ for how to interact with the Graph API.
Decided just to build my own comments system and not worry about trying to use the Facebook comment system.

sorry if this has been asked before, but I was wondering how you would be able to grab individual Facebook photos (not entire albums) and put them directly onto a personal website. I am not familiar with how to use the Facebook Photo API, so if that is the correct method, would someone be able to explain how to use it?
The website's language is HTML with some CSS.
Just use the Embedded Posts feature
For fine tuned programming, you haven't stated your website language or what is the exact issue you are having or anything like that, so you need to be more specific.
Consider reading the documentation https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/v2.2/photo and then come back with a specific question about implementation.
I currently need to collect pictures-comment (someone comment by pasting a picture) from facebook page group
I have done some research and find that
1.Support for this hasn't yet been added to the Graph API and as with many of the other messaging APIs, it's currently only avaialable for testing (i.e you must be a developer of the app to use it presently)
from
View attachments in threads
2.You have to use the old php SDK until graph supports attachments
from
Posting Attachment Facebook Graph API
could any one provide some codes to me?
I need to know
Are the two approaches really works?? If yes, then... If no, I guess i will need to write/find a crawler (but it again sounds difficult as facebook group page is dynamic web)
What should I do if I want to follow 1st approach?
Should I register as developer and set up an app and...? (I have no experience in setting up facebook app and would appreciate any useful step-by-step tutorial)
If I am going the 2nd approach (php SDK), are there are tutorial as I have no idea what should I do next.
I know java, c++ and little js but facebook apis are something really new to me.
Really appreciate any help.
I have tried for a month to set up Facebook comments on my site. I want the comment box on my post pages. Also, I want the social buttons which seem to be there sometimes. What file do I place the JavaScript SDK code on, in my PHP or CSS (or is it pasted into each post page)? Then do I cut and past the plugin code into each page I want it to be available, or just in one theme file? I'm lost in this sense and no one seems to be able to give me an answer.
All of the information you will need is on the Facebook developer page! If you are using Wordpress you may easily implement Facebook comments by installing the official Facebook plugin.
Is there a way to show your facebook wall on a website? I have been looking for days and all I can find is methods of showing ones OWN messages. Im looking for something(script/code) that will show the complete wall including what friends are posting. Is this even possible or is it prohibited by Facebook? I did search there 'developers api site' but couldnt find an anwser to this.
It's possible but you need to build your own custom version as officially facebook doesn't provide any pre-built plugins or code.
You'll have to code a lot of back-end and front-end stuffs. If you're really interested in building something like that, you might wanna consider looking at this script Facebook Wall Script 3.0 with PHP and Jquery
If you want to save time, you might buy that script, do the necessary changes and integrate facebook graph API so it shows data from your fb profile, but if you want build more advance version and have lot of time, then you can build a custom version from scratch.
i don't see the point of show your facebook wall on a website since can have that easily by pointing the user back to your facebook account.
i would suggest you to display a facebook page plugin instead as you can earn some like and it is free of charge.
could you let me know why you want to do that?
I am trying to create a bookmarklet to process some Facebook data about my contacts, what will possibly require to load another profile pages and see who my friends are.
I am trying to know which urls should I query to get this information. And also how to interact with FB's UI libraries and/or elements.
Is there any documentation for this?
You probably are looking for Facebook JavaScript SDK.
Here is documentation on the FB.ui(): http://fbdevwiki.com/wiki/FB.ui
